Second Amberley Rellie Challenge a great success
More than 100 teams helped raised about $4500 to upgrade technology at Amberley School by completing a series of mystery challenges.
The second annual Amberley Rellie Challenge was held at the Hurunui school last month (September), featuring 107 teams of two.
Organisers say the teams, who started in waves of 10, had to complete 10 mystery challenges including a word scramble, creating a unique handshake, a three-legged race and constructing a house from marshmallows and toothpicks.
"This fundraising event is all about what we stand for as a school. Our PRIDE values are cornerstones of our school: personal best, respect, integrity, determination, and enjoyment," a spokeswoman said.
"These were all certainly shown and so cool to see so many happy smiling faces enjoying themselves with family."
The school plans to hold the third Amberley Rellie Challenge in 2020.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
